Hypnobirthing- anyone else start?

Question

So I don’t have the funds to take an actual class but I’ve started listening to guided meditations at night and starting to collect playlists for labor and whatnot. My first birth I was very educated and empowered, but due to back labor I did cave and get an epidural (which I won’t be upset if I get another, but I’d like to try without!) 
Just curious if any other mommies started their hypnobirthing journey yet and if y’all have a favorite meditation or track to listen to?

Answer

Just found out Indian River County, Florida healthy start offers FREE hypnobirthing classes for nonresidents!  So if your anywhere in the area or have a good healthy start program in your area this may be an option. The Indian River classes are taught by my instructor and doula from my first birth. I'm going to be starting in January. So excited rn!

Answer

I was told to wait until the 3rd trimester to start the classes but I love to listen to the guided meditations before I take a nap. My first time taking the classes I would fall asleep while doing the guided meditation portion in class and was worried I wasn't retaining anything. But during labor I literally would fall asleep between contractions in the birthing pool and my arms would start floating lol It made my tough delivery a breeze! I'm so excited to start again!

Answer

Yes I've started! I'm just about 23 weeks. I've been told the earlier you start the better so I thought why not. I'm finding it a great way to go to sleep at night haha. The whole positive natural birth thing really resonates with me anyway so hypnobirthing just makes sense. I've just been reading books, listening to mediations and watching different breathing technique vids in YouTube. Last week me abs hubby started doing a 3 part class through a community organisation and while it's good doing the classes for extra practice and tips and also for getting hubs involved it's all the same stuff I've researched myself anyway. So glad I didn't try spend hundreds of dollars on the other hypnobirthing course I was looking at!

I’m going to start my online class in the next few weeks (Due March 22). I want lots of time to practice and I know i won’t do one class per week due to lots of other life things that are going on. The online class through hypnobabies is $179- if you have insurance did you check to see if you can be reimbursed?
